and to live by the values He prescribed for them.
C
hildren! What do you know about termites,
those hard-working creatures resembling
ants? Do you know that butterflies with their
beautiful wings start out as tiny caterpillars and
finally emerge from cocoons?
Do you know how woodpeckers hide tiny acorns in holes in
oak trees, how it is that glow-worms are not burned by the
light they give off, how frogs camouflage themselves to hide
from their enemies, or how it is that seals do not freeze in the
icy oceans..?
The stories you read in this book will give you lots of facts
about those and many other fascinating subjects. As you read
these stories you will think in detail about the animals in them
and see just how flawlessly Allah has created them all.
